I don't think that's all THAT complicated.
1. The ruling elite of the globe SIMPLY ARE from the regions of the old Roman Empire. That's simply a fact.
2. I've never been all THAT wedded to the European Union having 10 nations etc. to fulfill that prophecy in that way. Plausible but not certain, imho.
3. These OLD ROMAN EMPIRE ELITES HAVE arranged for the world to be divided up into 10 regions. That fits rather well those prophecies about the 10 kngs.
4. The elites are USING the mooselymbs and jihadi's for their own population reduction and other destructive evil aims . . . just as satan is using the elites . . . evidently with their conscious worship and complicit submissiveness quite deliberate in their involvement.
5. I have wondered post 9/11 if satan and the globalists are going to use the jihadi's to shred the other world's religions wholesale and then morph islam into worshiping satan . . . perhaps first as the last MAHDI . . . Plausible.
6. It is interesting that the influential Turkish Islamic scholar met recently with Jews interested in rebuilding the 3rd Jewish Temple . . . and was quite supportive of that goal . . . asserting that the new complex should include all faiths etc. etc. etc . . . sure sounds like the globalist goal of ONE WORLD RELIGION took another jump with that meeting . . . quite in keeping with END TIMES BIBLE PROPHECY. . . . though we realize that the REPLACEMENTARIANS et al do not have those prophecies in their RUBBER BIBLES . . . or if there are any such verses that escaped being ripped out, then the REPLACEMENTARIANS et a. manage to rationalize them away without too many beers.
